Hi all,
I have for a year now the following sensor which counts how many hours my air condition is on, and it was working fine. (as a matter of fact I have 3 air conditions so this is happened to all of them)
- platform: history_stats
name: Saloni 24h
entity_id: binary_sensor.saloni_ac_on
state: 'on'
type: time
start: '{{ now().replace(hour=0, minute=0, second=0) }}'
end: '{{ now() }}'
Yesterday I added one more sensor which counts the average energy consumption per hour of the particular air condition
- platform: template
sensors:
toshiba_average_watts_per_hour:
unit_of_measurement: "W"
value_template: "{{'%.f' | format(states.sensor.saloni_aircon_daily_energy.state|round(1)/states.sensor.saloni_24h.state|round(1)*1000)}}"
Today I have 2 problems. First and most annoying is that my first sensor which counts the hours was wrong. The air condition was on all night so at 8 o’clock in the morning should be 8 (hours) but it was 4.30
The second sensor showed the following error in the logs

For the second sensor I think I have to add somethng in order stop divide with zero. But what is the problem with the first sensor which counts the hours. Is there a way the second sensor to “broke” somehow the first one?
